In this exclusive episode of Two Chicks and a Plot Twist, we’re kicking off our brand-new segment, Book Plug Tuesday, by diving into a story that moved us to our core.

Join us for a heartfelt conversation with author Dorie Burdett Pickle, whose book Dawn: A Fresh Perspective on Life, Death, and the Other Side offers a powerful and intimate journey through grief, legacy, and the spiritual bonds that connect us beyond this life.

Dorie shares her writing process, inspired by a sacred promise to her mother on her deathbed, and the emotional depth behind every page. We also reflect on what Dawn meant to us personally, how it reshaped our view on loss, and why it’s a must-read for anyone navigating grief or searching for meaning.

💛 Whether you’re in the middle of your own healing, supporting someone who is, or just craving a raw, honest, and beautifully written memoir — this one’s for you.
